This rugged heritage brand made its name outfitting gold prospectors on their way to the Klondike, and Filson are still best known for gnarly waxed canvas, heavy mackinaw wool, checked flannel shirts, and other things that look good with a two-month beard. But Filson's new Surveyor range hits a little different.
Made in smart Cordura nylon, this 25-litre backpack (also available in a slightly larger 36-litre version) has a more stylish, urban vibe that makes it perfect for commuting, city breaks, or work trips. And while the Surveyor pack might look a bit more refined, that pioneer spirit is still very much in its DNA. The Cordura fabric is lightweight but extremely abrasion-resistant and features a dry wax treatment for water-repellency.
Contoured shoulder straps and a padded back panel make it comfortable for all-day carry, and the volume is spread across a roomy main zip compartment and a quick-access front pocket. Inside there's a padded laptop slip – because while a MacBook might not have been an essential accessory for an 1890s gold mining camp, we all have to move with the times.
